From the reviews

My son has adhd and has been going here since he was diagnosed this past April. It has helped him a lot and for someone who doesn’t like sports he truly enjoys it a lot! Master Lee makes learning very fun for the kids while maintaining the core values of the sport.

Chang Lee's is helping my daughter chase her Olympic dream. At Chang Lee's she has found awesome training, a wonderful sense of team spirit, and incredible instructors who want the best for her and are invested in helping her grow and helping her chase her dream.

★★★★★ — Becky, Sep 2018

Chang Lee's taekwondo was the best decision we made, strictly, no messing around straight discipline, and my son has gotten better with his martial arts. I love how Mr. Lee addresses the kids if they're messing around and not putting in 100 percent, which was a big issue in our last dojo.

I went here many many many moons ago when it was at Galloway & Town East, and loved it way back then. It's good to see he is still running a great dojang thirty years later. I won my first (and sadly last, went on to play football/baseball etc) tournament with his teachings. Hope you are doing well Mr.

New to taekwondo? Start at Chang Lee's Taekwondo and Fitness

Chang Lee's Taekwondo and Fitness comes up as a beginner-friendly school, going by their listing and students’ reviews. If you've never trained or set foot in a dojang, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and instructors scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable schools build fundamentals (stances, blocks, kicks, and basic forms) for weeks, sparring eases in gradually and with gear on, and instructors keep it controlled and safe. Third, all ages and all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most schools are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first taekwondo class at Chang Lee's Taekwondo and Fitness

Nervous about walking into a taekwondo school for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, and kicks with a partner or on pads — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: loose athletic wear you can move in (or a dobok if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the floor. What to bring: water and a positive attitude — many schools lend a loaner dobok for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll get your own dobok and belt, and sparring gear (mouthguard, headgear, and guards) once you begin sparring. Sparring eases in gradually, once your fundamentals and forms are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the instructor. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Taekwondo is a martial art and a contact sport. Ease in, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
